	Santa Clara - Cuba - Mark Moxon, Travel Writer
		Widely regarded as a CIA-backed terrorist attack, the explosion infuriated and saddened Cuba, and the picture showing the emotions on Che's face as he surveys the crowd is a study in capturing the moment.
		Disillusioned by politics and the increasing reliance of Cuba on the USSR, Che left Cuba in 1965 and went to the Congo, where he joined a failed rebellion before moving to Bolivia in 1966 to set up his own guerrilla troop in the jungle.
		Interestingly, the Beatles and Cuba didn't get on at first; the Fab Four's music was banned throughout the 1960s and 1970s, and a whole generation had to get their rock 'n' roll fix from listening to foreign radio (the radio that got past the jamming technology employed by the government, that is).

	Cuba's US priest, `on the edge'
		SANTA CLARA, Cuba - Among the announcements for baptisms and marriage counseling attached to the bulletin board inside La Pastora parish is a curious two-page document.
		Few Americans experience the intimacy with daily life in Cuba as well as he does and perhaps that is why his views conform to neither of the ideological extremes that define the Cuba debate.
		However, he said his presence in Santa Clara, a city of 220,000 where the streets are choked with bicycles rather than cars because of the country's severe economic crisis, is ``an indirect sign of hope for reconciliation'' between the United States and Cuba.

	Excerpts from the Pope homily Thursday in Santa Clara, Cuba / Miami Herald - Cuba News / Noticias - CubaNet News
		The social situation experienced in this beloved country has created not a few difficulties for family stability: for example, material scarcities—as when wages are not sufficient or have a very limited buying power—dissatisfaction for ideological reasons, the attraction of the consumer society.
		These and other measures involving labor and other matters have helped to intensify a problem which has existed in Cuba for years: people being obliged to be away from the family within the country, and emigration, which has torn apart whole families and caused suffering for a large part of the population.
		The family, the school and the church must form an educational community in which the children of Cuba can "grow in humanity.'' Do not be afraid; open your families and schools to the values of the gospel of Jesus Christ, which are never a threat to any social project.
